Synopsis:

Developed exclusively for PlayStation®3, God of War® III is the final instalment of the multi-million unit-selling trilogy. Developed by Santa Monica Studio, God of War III will bring epic battles to life with stunning graphics and an elaborate plot that puts Kratos at the centre of carnage and destruction, as he seeks revenge against the Gods who have betrayed him.

Set in the realm of brutal Greek mythology, God of War III is a single-player game that allows players to take on the climatic role of the ex-Spartan warrior, Kratos, as he scales through the intimidating heights of Mt. Olympus and the dark depths of Hell, to seek revenge on those who have betrayed him. Armed with double-chained blades, and an array of new weapons and magic for this iteration of the trilogy, Kratos must take on mythologys darkest creatures whilst solving intricate puzzles throughout his merciless quest to destroy Olympus.

Review:

God of War III's beginning sequence really pulls you into the experience. With a great mix of combat, platform & puzzles that allow the player to fight, solve puzzles and enjoy story elements.

God of War III brings the player closer to Kratos, so you really feel and understand Kratos in the first person. Continually on the brutality, there are plenty of fight opportunities to with realistic graphics.

The ending is not what you expect and some players may not appreciate this break out style, but players are uniquely able to explore the deeper workings of Kratos to understand his internal struggle, and his personal demons that he faces.
